Authorities in Arkansas say a man tried to use a horse sedative to get some shuteye.
Sheriff's deputies say William C. Wilson was taken from a motel room to a hospital Tuesday evening taking horse tranquilizers as many as five times to try to get some rest.
In the room, deputies found syringes and three bottles of equine sedatives.
A veterinarian tells the Batesville Daily Guard the drugs the man took are dangerous and tightly controlled - and that Wilson "is lucky to be alive."
